Why Giantprint For Photo Enlargements & Canvas Prints?
Below is a list of some of the benefits associated with using Giantprint as your print service provider.
NO SHORTCUTS
Basically, we do not take shortcuts and our prints are designed to LAST.
EXPERT SERVICE
Buy from the photo enlargements and canvas prints experts, with a strong focus on colour management and archival preparation.
AUSTRALIAN MADE & OWNED
Buy from an Australian-owned company that produces all of its prints right here in Australia. Furthermore, all prints are produced in-house by us - we do not outsource our work, and this provides us with higher levels of control over quality.
ONLY POSTER-SIZE PRINTING
Large format photographic printing is all that we do. We have the knowledge, the techniques and the equipment required to produce stunning photo enlargements and canvas prints that are poster size.
HIGH-RESOLUTION
Printed at close to 3000 dpi resolution - the highest available resolution of any large-format printer that uses pigment-based inks.
PROFESSIONAL EQUIPMENT
We use professional-grade printing equipment, designed specifically for photographic applications rather than "general" printing. That is why you can see the difference with our prints.
PREMIUM PAPERS
We use only premium, heavy-grade media. All canvas and paper is acid-free and optical-brightener-free (OBA-free), for greater longevity and resistance to fade.
OEM INKS
Produced using original-equipment-manufacturer (OEM) Epson inks, which are carefully monitored for quality and are designed specifically for the printing equipment we use. We do not use third-party inks under any circumstances.
LONG-LASTING INKS
Produced using archival-grade pigment inks: the Epson Ultrachrome K3 inkset. We do not use dye-based inks under any circumstances due to their comparatively limited resistance to fade.
NEUTRAL BLACK AND WHITE PRINTS
The combination of a specially-calibrated, high-end RIP together with the Epson Ultrachrome K3 inkset produces exceptionally neutral results without colour artefacts.
CORRECTIONS AT NO CHARGE
We don't just print your photo. We analyse it. We make a number of global corrections to your image, as well as a number of other adjustments - at no charge to you. These corrections include dust and scratch minimisation, colour and tonal corrections and red-eye removal.
ADVANCED CORRECTION OPTION
If your photo is a little trickier to fix, or if you request detailed work on your image, we will provide you with a firm quotation before we commence any work. Similarly, if we determine that your photo is not suitable for enlarging, we will not proceed and we will let you know.
UPLOAD LARGE FILES
Ability to upload very large files, up to 600 megabytes. Please contact us for upload instructions when submitting files that cannot be sent vie email.
ACCURATE PRINTER PROFILES
For advanced users, we can provide you with accurate printer profiles, to enable you to soft-proof your work.
ALL PRINTS ARE CURED
As a strict policy, all prints are cured for a minimum of 48 hours. This minimises the chance of print ghosting occurring, or the chance that foreign particles or dust will adhere to the print during transit.
SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING
Delivered in packaging material that is either 100% recycled, 100% recyclable or 100% biodegradable.
DELIVERED FLAT
All prints are professionally packed in a flat arrangement using sturdy board. We do not roll up our prints under any circumstances.
KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF
Friendly, helpful service by knowledgeable staff.
PROOFING OPTIONS
Option to order an A4-size printed proof before proceeding, produced on the exact paper or canvas as the final print, which allows you to have a fair idea of the sharpness and colour of the end product.
